thanks mate having to paint the rest now as it looks so old and tatty lol

[alan_uk]

more goodies arrived today








have also 75% decided on this color for the car but still not 100%

[C35Rob]

that green will look awesome with white wheels, go for it!

[alan_uk]

its actually a done deal now as i went and ordered the paint today

i went for this though which is slightly more exotic

Blu Glauco Paint code on car : LAMBOR-0123 - PPG code : 0123





im thinking

roof
spoiler blade and end caps
rear light center panel
mirrors
front splitter maybe
and the s style ducts

all in ferrari midnight black as i have some left over from the wife's wheels of her audi haha its just a high gloss black with clear coat

this is it





excited now its all starting to come together

This car will be a cracking buy for someone when you sell it sounds an ambitious paint scheme but you always get these things done properly quick, can't wait to see it.

haha thanks mate, and yea i agree be a good cheap car lol

big news is which ive kept under wraps until i had it sorted is its off to woodsport once painted and getting a 2gr conversion

i have to wait roughly 4 months for the parts to be sourced and brought over from the us but will be well worth it

[synXero]

...thinking maybe I'll buy it off you once that's done then! Awesome plan.

ill swap you for the vette if you still have it

[JAAASH]

Awesome colour choice, love it.
Properly jealous about the 2gr conversion as well. Something I'd love to do to mine.
Looking forward to more updates

Thanks mate it probably wont be finished until around november time like but eventually

Im looking into fitting trd rear quarters feathered in to the oem front with bomex splitter using border skirts and oem rear bumper

Ive spoke to patrick who done toreros car and builds the kit and he has said he can do the panels extra flexible to get them to bend better for what i want for a very good price too

[juliankv73]

Tuned in mate!

[alan_uk]

Cool man

Still cant believe you sold yours :O

Yes I still can't believe she's gone, but as family demands more of my time at present and a never ending list of house stuff, the time was right to sell her on

I like what your planning...2gr and radical paint job, shaping up to be a shows topping 2 you'll have and the grin factor too

I'm not too far off as I own 50% of my Dads 1mzfe V6 Mr2 ha ha, once he decides to hand over the keys, she's mine

[alan_uk]

Yea i suppose thats kinda like a bonus and a bit of a concelation too in a way

I must admit i had been looking for a good well looked after Low miles rev5 t-bar to keep as a long term toy

And this 1 was perfect despite its pink paint lol

Just got to get my finger out now

[alan_uk]

well the day has finally come to get all my freshly refurbed dash plastics back in the car where they belong

they came out really well this acrylic matte black is as close color and texture wise to oem as i have seen











will update later when its all back in and gauges wired

[alan_uk]

well its done

she is finally all back together again and if i do say so myself looking rather tidy

another thing ill point out is the gauge position seems to be perfect in sight line also

anyway ill let the pics do the talking

[synXero]

Aced it

[alan_uk]

Aced it

haha thanks buddy i got there in the end lol

[acf8181]
